  • Download Chogha-Zanbil Brochure
    Foreword by the Director-General of UNESCO Chogha Zanbil, the great Elamite holy city, was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1979, making it one of the first cultural sites to be so recognized. Being such an exceptional site, it is particularly regrettable that it has been affected by serious conservation problems resulting both from the inher- ent fragility of its earthen constructions and from years of warfare. Rising to the challenge of safeguarding Chogha Zanbil, the UNESCO Division of Cultural Heritage sent a first team of experts to Iran in 1995 with a view to making recommenda- tions to ensure the sustainable conservation of the site. The resulting Project for the Conservation of Chogha Zanbil – the first major international cultural initiative since the Iranian Revolution – was subsequently launched thanks to generous donations from the Japanese and Iranian Governments, and the close collaboration between the Iranian Cultural Heritage Organization (ICHO) and UNESCO. I am very pleased to see that the project’s first phase, carried out from 1999 to 2002, has been successful. In addi- tion to implementing urgently needed restoration work, draw- ing up a General Plan for Conservation and developing training and research activities, the project has paved the way for future international and bilateral projects in Iran and else- where in Central Asia, a region particularly rich in earthen architecture. In the upcoming second phase, we look forward to contin- uing fruitful cooperation between UNESCO, ICHO, and the Governments of Japan and Iran, whose efforts to ensure the conservation of Chogha Zanbil will undoubtedly earn the grati- tude of future generations.

  • Historia Completa De Persia E Irán
    Historia de la Civilización Persa hasta el Irán Contemporáneo 1- Introducción La estela dejada por Persia es todavía palpable por doquier. Por suerte, el pueblo iraní, tan profundamente celoso de su pasado, ha sabido conservar las huellas indelebles de todos los grandes personajes que ha dado, desde poderosos reyes a carismáticos poetas. Y ésas huellas son parte importante de los alicientes que satisfacen al visitante. La presencia humana en Irán se remonta a unos 80.000 años. La prehistoria perduró hasta ahora hace unos cinco mil años, cuando bajo el reinado de Elam se fundaron las primeras ciudades en el suroeste del país, Susa fue su primera capital. Al mismo tiempo, tribus hurritas habitaban el noroeste. La meseta central fue ocupada hace tres mil años por las tribus indoiranias, de raza aria; eran los medos y los persas. El primer gran monarca persa fue Ciro II el Grande (599-529 a. C.). Gracias a su ambición logró fundar el imperio aqueménida, cuyos dominios abarcaban desde el actual Afganistán hasta el Mediterráneo. En el año 521 a. C. Darío I fue proclamado Rey de Reyes. Estableció su capital en Persépolis. A pesar de sufrir una severa derrota en la batalla de Maratón, cuando intentaba dominar a los atenienses, amplió su imperio desde Egipto al Danubio y desde el mar de Aral al río Indo. El hijo de Darío, Jerjes, derrotó a los griegos en la batalla de las Termópilas y ocupó Atenas. Alejandro Magno, un joven caudillo macedonio se convirtió en el monarca más poderoso del mundo. En el año 334 a.

  • The Methodology of Iranian Curved Arches (Sagh) Based on Their Geometry
    J. Appl. Environ. Biol. Sci. , 5(8S)648-662, 2015 ISSN: 2090-4274 Journal of Applied Environmental © 2015, TextRoad Publication and Biological Sciences www.textroad.com The methodology of Iranian curved arches (Sagh) based on their geometry Afrooz Rahimi Ariaei 1, Zahra Sadat Etezadi*2 1Academic member, Isfahan Sepehr Institute of Higher Education, PhD student of architecture, Architecture faculty, Islamic Azad University of Sharekord 2* BA student, Interior architecture, Isfahan Sepehr Institute of Higher Education and the corresponding author Received: March 8, 2015 Accepted: May 10, 2015 ABSTRACT The architecture of each county is a display of its culture. So Iran’s architecture is the mirror of Iranian cultures; the characteristics of Iranian culture could be found in its architecture and vice versa. In the meantime, arches are one of the apparent expressions of the link between architecture and culture. Iranian coverings, over the ages, have developed due to time requirements and innovative needs; generally speaking, coverings have two types of flat and curved (sagh). The diversity in the geometry of Iranian arches is the result of Iranian architects’ efforts based on the antecedent’s experiences and their own modern technical achievements. Relying on this reach background, by reclamation and innovation, we could prevent loosing and destruction of this art. Vaults that are made with wishbone arches would increase the height of the monument and have more static stability compared to other vaults. The present study is an effort to assess the typology of Iranian curved coverings (except for domes) based on their evolutionary history, geometry, and shape. This study was a historical, descriptive and analytic study on the basis of two methods of field and library study.

  • Conservation of Chogha Zanbil
    Conservation of Chogha Zanbil Mission Report by J. Jokilehto 18 January 2000 1 Choga Zanbil 99.doc/JJ/09-Jun-00 Conservation of Chogha Zanbil Mission report by J. Jokilehto, 11 January 2000. On the invitation of the Research Centre for the Conservation of Cultural Relics, RCCCR, of the Iranian Cultural Heritage Organisation, ICHO, Dr Jukka Jokilehto was consulted on the conservation management of the archaeological site of Chogha Zanbil. The mission visited the site from 11 to 13 December 1999, including discussions with the team working on the site, attendance to coordination meeting, and giving a seminar on international principles of conservation. The site of Chogha Zanbil The site of Chogha Zanbil (also spelled Tchogha Zanbil) was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1979 on the basis of criteria (iii) and (iv). The site is known from the antiquity as the sacred city of Dur-Untash, built by the Elamite king Untash-Gal in the mid thirteenth century B.C. The Assyrians destroyed the city in 640 B.C. Today, a huge mud-brick ziggurat dominates the site. Three circular walls and the remains of temples, palaces, houses, tombs, and other structures surround the ziggurat. The site was excavated by the French Archaeological Mission under the direction of R. de Mecquenem in 1936-39, and again by Roman Ghirshman in 1950-62. The site was in the war zone during the 1980s, and suffered from bombardments. It was subsequently liberated from the military occupation, and the ziggurat was restored.

  • Beyond Your Dreams Beyond Your Dreams
    Beyond your dreams Beyond your dreams Destınatıon Iran Iran Iran is an incredibly culturally and historically rich country. Its past dates back to the Lower Paleolithic era and is considered to be one of the oldest civilizations in the world, which means it is home to some of the most incredible archaeological sites on the planet. On the other hand, a little known fact about Iran is that it is the 18th largest country in the world, and its size and geographic location bridge Asia and the Middle East. These attributes make Iran a fascinating and diverse place to visit and explore. Iran was known as Persia until 1935 and their long and colorful history of literature, mathematics, astronomy, and philosophy is well documented. Persia was an important center of arts and music, and the amazing history can still be seen today. Today, Iran is officially known as the Islamic Republic of Iran, but since its political history has been tumultuous, the number of western travelers to the country is limited, adding to its mysticism. Beyond your dreams How to get there? T h e r e i s o n e m a i n international airport in Iran, Imam Khomeini, which is the main gateway for visitors to the country. There are currently no direct flights from North America so visitors can connect through Europe or the Middle East in Vienna, Frankfurt, Istanbul, Dubai, Kuwait, or Abu Dhabi. Airlines that currently fly into Tehran include: Jazeera Airways, Iran Air, Caspian Airlines, Austrian Air, Air Arabia, Lufthansa, and Pegasus Airlines.
